This position she's taking is just a pretty smart political one. It makes no sense to impeach Trump if McConnell is just going to protect him in the Senate anyways. Once the Mueller report comes out and if there is enough Republican support to impeach in both chambers then she can just pivot and ride the wave.

There are over a dozen things any other president would be impeached over, whether you are willing to admit them or not. Trump is a lying, fraudulent, felonious, crook who colluded with our cold war enemy and other uber rich fascists to subvert the democratic process and enrich him and his family at the expense of his ignorant racist followers.

It takes something the Republicans care about because the Senate will vote along party lines then Trump can claim he was found innocent. At this point impeachment would take so long it's not worth it. Better to beat him in an election. If he wins then they will have ample evidence from 2 years of house investigations to pursue impeachment.

By holding a continuous stream of hearings the Dems can discharge their constitutional responsibility. This might or might not move the needle on public opinion enough to bring aboard some Republicans. But they need to take a restrained approach and let the chips fall where they may. The Dems have a strong hand. No need to overplay it.

Keep in mind there is much more to come regarding the Trump Organization, Trump's taxes, Trump and Deutsche, etc etc. Much more.
